1 over 2, 3 over 2 is the correct answer.
Answer:
1, -6 and -5
Explanation:
To solve the equation means to get the values of n which satisfy the given equation.
The equation given is:
(n-1) (n+6) (n+5) = 0
This equation will be true if any of the terms (brackets) is equal to zero.
This means that:
either n-1 = 0 .............> n = 1
or n + 6 = 0 ................> n = -6
or n + 5 = 0 ................> n = -5
Hope this helps :)

Explanation:
Set up two equations
2
x
+
2
y
=
54
x
×
y
=
176
Solving the first equation for x
2
x
+
2
y
−
2
y
=
54
−
2
y
this gives
2
x
=
54
−
2
y
Divide both sides by 2
(
2
x
2
)
=
54
−
2
y
2
This gives.
x
=
27
−
y
putting this value into the second equation gives.
(
27
−
y
)
×
y
=
176
multiplying across the parenthesis gives
27
y
−
y
2
=
176
subtracting 176 from both sides gives
is
27
y
−
y
2
−
176
=
0
multiplying by negative one gives
−
27
y
+
y
2
+
176
=
0
factoring this into y gives
(
y
−
11
)
×
(
y
−
16
)
=
0
Solving for both y's gives
y
=
11
,
y
=
16
